Set just 300 metres from Brixham’s lively harbour and 450 metres from Breakwater Beach, this spacious coastal cottage is perfect for families and groups eager to soak up the energy of South Devon’s most characterful seaside town. With elegant interiors spread across three floors and far-reaching views over the marina and breakwater, it offers both a prime location and a welcoming base by the sea.
Inside this coastal retreat has been lovingly decorated, blending original features with contemporary colours and thoughtfully chosen artworks for a homely vibe. Leave coats and bags in the handy entrance before heading into the welcoming lounge/diner, where plush sofas are arranged around the Smart TV and a dining table invites lively mealtimes and evenings of card games. When tummies rumble, head to the galley-style kitchen, which is a delight to prepare meals in thanks to its soothing green hues, breakfast bar and high-quality appliances. From here, you can step straight out into an enclosed, multi-layered garden, with artificial grass and a choice of seating, including outdoor dining furniture and sun loungers. Accommodation is spread between the top two floors. The first floor houses a cosy single, a room with a single over a double bunk bed, a spacious king-size room and a family shower room with beautiful tilework. At the top, there’s a double bedroom with views over the rooftops to the marina, plus a stylish bathroom with patterned walls, a bath and a walk-in shower. Parking is in a nearby public car park (charges apply).
Step outside to enjoy strolls around the harbour and breakwater, hop on a boat trip around Torbay and explore the wonderful Golden Hind replica. There’s plenty here to entice foodies, with some of the UK’s freshest seafood on offer in numerous restaurants and cream teas in cosy tearooms. Torquay (8.5 miles) and Paignton (5.5 miles) offer great days out, while the South West Coast Path boasts dreamy coastal views.
